I think people don't know you can use them for incomes not just prices of things.

One of my first jobs was at a drug store, at some point I was trained how to do the monthly report that went to corporate, it included sales data and payroll information. It was the size of a blueprint sheet of paper. It was necessary for me to have access to payroll, including the management.

The drug store was a large one and busy, it was a SuperX that was in a great spot because the 51 freeway didn't exist yet. In todays dollars, the manager was making $161,000/yr.

That was back when retail management was a good career path, which is no longer true.
